Can't get events to fire

I've come across a hundred different pages but I haven't found any that have helped me solve my problem.

I'm creating a class that's acting as the plugin and event handler.

Code:

public class SapPlayerReporter extends JavaPlugin implements Listener {
    ...
}

The plugin is being loaded fine, I can see in the output that it's being enabled:



In my code, I've implemented the methods and added the proper annotation:

Code:

@EventHandler
public void onJoin(PlayerJoinEvent event) {
    this.getLogger().log(Level.INFO, "Player " + event.getPlayer().getDisplayName() + " joined. Creating client.");
    ...
}

And when enabling the plugin, I've registered the listener and plugin:

Code:

@Override
public void onEnable() {
    this.getLogger().log(Level.INFO, "SapPlayerReporter has been enabled.");
    this.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);
}

I'm using 1.8.8 and I can't really figure out why none of my events are firing. Everything is done as it should be but none of my events are firing. I'm not sure where else to look at this point.

 

@_bryan So to make sure I'm getting this right.

This isn't getting logged? May we see the whole class?

 

No I don't see this message in the log. Here is the entire class:

Code:

package nl.dimensys.minecraft.spigot;

import org.bukkit.event.EventHandler;
import org.bukkit.event.Listener;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerJoinEvent;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerLoginEvent;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerMoveEvent;
import org.bukkit.event.player.PlayerQuitEvent;
import org.bukkit.plugin.java.JavaPlugin;

import java.util.*;
import java.util.logging.Level;

public class SapPlayerReporter extends JavaPlugin implements Listener {

    public SapPlayerReporter() {
    }

    @EventHandler
    public void onJoin(PlayerJoinEvent event) {
        this.getLogger().log(Level.INFO, "Player " + event.getPlayer().getDisplayName() + " joined. Creating client.");
    }

    @EventHandler
    public void onQuit(PlayerQuitEvent event) {
        this.getLogger().log(Level.INFO, "Player " + event.getPlayer().getDisplayName() + " quit. Closing client.");
    }

    @EventHandler
    public void onMove(PlayerMoveEvent event) {
        this.getLogger().log(Level.INFO, "Player " + event.getPlayer().getDisplayName() + " moved.");
    }

    @Override
    public void onEnable() {
        this.getLogger().log(Level.INFO, "SapPlayerReporter has been enabled.");
        this.getServer().getPluginManager().registerEvents(this, this);
    }

    @Override
    public void onDisable() {
        this.getLogger().log(Level.INFO, "SapPlayerReporter has been disabled.");
    }

}

 

@_bryan Try removing the constructor, constructors in the JavaPlugin class sometimes cause errors, however they're normally before the plugin enables, but it doesn't hurt to try.

Also, instead of having to do Logger#log(Level, String); you can do Logger#info(String); along with the other levels.

 

I'm surprised it didn't. You shouldn't have constructors in the JavaPlugin extended class.

 

Durp, the constructor has been removed and now it's working fine. That's a rather odd one but thanks for the solution.

 

@_bryan Glad it helped. Don't forget to set the thread to solved
